Letters Patent No. 92,411, datedlnlg/ 6, 1869.

The'Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent-and making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, DANIEL WIDMAYER, of Lansing, in' the county of Ingham, and State of Michigan, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Churns; and I do hereby declare that the foliowing is a full, clear, and exact description oi the .construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making apart of this specification, and t'o theletters and igures of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1, of the drawings, is a front plan yview of' ymy device.

F ignre 2 is a longitudinal sectional View ofthe saine.

Figure 3 is a detail.

My invention relates to churns; and l It consists., mainly, in the combinationand arrangement, in a novel and efficient manner, of devices, by which the process of extract-ing butter from cream or milk may begreatly facilitated.

rlhe letter A, of the drawings, represents 'the tub of the churn; and

Letter Bis an upright standard, adjusted therein, and ektending upward above the same, as shown.

l.The letters c are the dashers, perforated, and adjusted upon the standard B, at right angles therewith.

Ihis standard B is arranged to rotate upon its pivot and socket at the point d.

I make an inner chamber upon the bottom of the' tub, for the purpose of forming a receptacle for hot or cold water, which water is used for the purpose of regulating the temperature of the tluid'in the tub. rlhis chamber is marked s on the drawings.

The'letter u is a tube, extending from the top lof the tub, and into the chamber s, as shown. It is a conduit for the water', above mentioned.

The letter o is an outlet from the chamber s, which is opened or closed at will.

I 'sometimes place a thermometer in the side of-my clmrn, to indicatethe temperature ofthe iuid.

The means by which I work the churmdasher are 'shown on iig.' 1.

The letter D represents a frame, upon the` bottom bar of which the tub rests, as shown.

The upper cross-bar of this frame is hinged at one end and hooked atthe other, the object heilig to provide means for adjusting or removing the standard B at will. l

It willbe observed that the lower end of standard B rests on a pivot at the bottom of the tub, while its upper end is pivot-ed to the upper cross-bar of the frame.

rIhe letter o is a small wheel, .set in a slot in a post ofthe side frame; and

Letter r is a large wheel, set in the post opposite the wheel o, as shown.

rIhis wheel o' has a handle, a, by which it is actuated,

The letter fm. is a belt, adjusted upon the wheels,

and around the standard, in the manner represented.' To operate the churn-flasher, I move the handle n' up or down.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

. lhe combination of `the tub A, standard B, chamber s, frame I), wheels o and r, and belt Im, all coustrncted and arranged to operate substantially as and for the purposes specified. v l

In testimony that I claim the above, I have hereunto subscribed my name, in the presence of two witnesses.

DANIEL WIDMAYER.
